The Dancing Plague of 1518 took place in Strasbourg Alsace. It began with Frau Troffea who began to dance in the street and kept dancing for nearly a week when more people joined in. Some called it hysteria while others say they all caught a fever or virus. The ‘plague’ lasted from July to September and about 400 people died.
